I need help with posing! Can you help me?

Yes!! I can absolutely help you with posing! If you’ve never been in front of a camera before…don’t worry. You’re in the same boat as 90% of my clients. I’ve been helping my clients look great since 2008. I’ll help guide your poses during the session so you look & feel your best…not stuff & awkward.

I’ll ask you questions before the session to help me photograph your best features & minimize your least favorite ones.

*FUN IDEA – take a gander on Pinterest & see what poses interest you. I have a million different poses we’ll try together at the session. But I ALWAYS happy to capture any fun ideas my clients want too.

Does the Session Fee come with any photos?

No…your Session Fee covers the time we’re together capturing memories at our photo session & the time it takes to carefully edit your proofs. All Printed Art, Albums, and Digital Collections are purchased separately at our in-person Reveal/Ordering Appointment in my studio. CLICK HERE to view all the Printed Art, Album, and Digital Collection options. You’ll be able to see beautiful samples of everything in my studio.

What happens if it rains?

Photo Session – Don’t worry…..I keep all my Sundays & Mondays open just in case we need to reschedule due to rain, crazy high wind, freezing cold, or sweltering heat.

Wedding Day – Though we can’t reschedule your whole wedding due to bad weather….we’ll make the most of your day & take as many photos as we can whenever Mother Nature allows us to. We’ll rework your Wedding Day Plan & work around the bad weather so we can capture the wedding photos you’ve dreamed of ON your actual wedding day. If it truly rains all day & we’re unable to capture your desired photos….a complimentary 1-hour session can be scheduled so we can capture those photos for you. *hair, makeup, tux rental, wedding dress cleaning, new flowers, and venue fees are all paid for by the couple.

How do you edit the photos?

My editing style is very natural & true to life. I lovingly & thoughtfully hand edit every photo to ensure you’re happy & satisfied.

Printed Art & Albums receive fully polished edits that are perfectly flawless & wall worthy. I zoom in super close to remove all stray hairs, blemishes, cat/dog hair, and chipped fingernail polish. I will apply slimming edits if needed and adjust any other imperfections so you have a perfect piece of art you’ll cherish forever. *FREE matching digitals with the same flawless edits come with every piece of printed art you purchase.

Digitals are lightly edited to ensure you can print up to a beautiful 8×10. I zoom in close enough to remove imperfections I can see when the photo is 8×10 in size. *You can upgrade to a large resolution digital file with fully polished & flawless edits for an additional $55 per photo.

Head Swap Edits are FREE on 16x20s and larger…and just an additional $25 for smaller photo sizes. *If you need a head swap on a 16×20 AND also need a smaller print of that same photo…there’s NO additional charge for THAT smaller photo 🙂

How long will it take to receive my photos?

Proofs will be ready for you to view & order at our in-person Reveal/Ordering Appointment 1-3 days after our photo session.

Digitals are sent to you on my Custom Photo App 1-4 days after our Reveal/Ordering Appointment. Once you approve the final edits you can share on social & save to your phone immediately.

Printed Wall Art arrives in 5-7 days after you approve your final edits.

Albums arrive in 7-10 days after you approve your final edits and album design.
